I picked up Dee, Dev was at work. Sunday’s were usually his day off, but when someone’s sick he covers. This afternoon someone was sick. So I didn’t get to see my rockstar before taking his girl out on a date. I should say our girl, but he’s their girl. Dee and I get along.…

Everyone had a good time. Even I did, but afterwards I was left with that empty feeling as we cleaned up. I loved my family. Hell, I never even thought I’d have this one day. I should be happy, but I wasn’t. Lost inside my own mind. The anxiety and the depression threatened to rip…

Dee made it just in time to take out her pie from the oven with the last bit of cooking wrapping up, Iris and Dee pushed me out of my kitchen. “Go play with the boys.” Dee said as she pushed Dev out after me. Rosie had arrived as well as Carla and were helping…

Our kiss ended with both of us breathless and grinning maddly at each other. Dev was an amazing kisser. Not that Sage or Dee were bad, but Dev was just Dev. Dev pressed a kiss to my cheek. “I wish you wouldn’t keep me out.” I sighed. “I’m trying. I don’t want to drown you.”…

Early the next morning I was up went for a run and had a shower before starting breakfast when there was a knock at the door. The boys were all getting ready for school I could hear the giggling upstairs. And 16 year old boys in fits of laughter wasn’t necessary a good thing but…

It was the day before the big day. Our first family dinner with most of our families getting together for the first time. Everyone’s but mine. Which was depressing in it’s own right. Even Sage’s long lost brother was going to be here. It was the first time we were all meeting him. Sage had…

Sage was curled up around my pillow when I walked into the bedroom. Dee curled around him and I sighed. She patted the space next to her. “I want to be by Sage. You and Dev drift off into dream world without us. At least I can feel his warmth. I sighed. “Fine.” I went…

By the time I walked back home it was late. The lights in the house were all off and the basement door was locked. Sage had already gone to bed. It was colder now. The moon was hidden behind the clouds, it might snow soon. I could feel it. But I didn’t go inside. I…

Dee told me all about how she and Dev met. They’d been in highschool together, but they didn’t know each other. It wasn’t until nursing school that she met him. He was playing a club with the guys and they hooked up. It wasn’t anything spectacular Dee said. But she went back another night and…
-
I was the gentleman. I opened all the doors and I kept Dee warm with an easy pattern woven around us. She didn’t seem to notice there was no chill and the breeze when it swept down the wind tunnel that was New York City streets didn’t phase us. I asked, “Where we going? And…

Dev and Dee lived several blocks away and I walked in the chilling November weather. It wasn’t bitter cold yet. But it was getting there. The leather kept me warm as I walked and drowned in the emptiness of my life. The doorman smiled at me and waved me over. I’d been over almost everyday…
-
Getting Ready Sage pulled me off the couch. “Go get ready.” I sighed. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to go. Ever since Dev left I felt worse. To kill time I went to NYU’s website and looked at all the courses they were offering. But the semester had already started so I could apply…

Life oustside the Venatori was a lot scarier than I imagined. I was lost. I didn’t know what to do. I tried to do the family life. Tried to be mother and father to the boys. I tried to take care of Sage and on the outside everything looks good. I’m happy, I’m functioning. The…

All three boys came with Sage and Dev. Matt was looking at me with a frown. “Why are you pulling them out?” “Can I talk with Matt?” Everyone looked around and then left. Drake didn’t want to leave but Dev carried him out whispereing to him about how they could all go get icecream as…

I just smiled at Sage. “Making sure she’ll be okay.” Sage shook his head. “That’s a pack bond. And not just any bond. You can’t do that with this many people.” I nodded. “I just did.” Dev looked at me, “What did you do?” Sage looked at him. “He tied us to him. No one…

I opened my eyes and promptly closed them again the white lights of the Infirmary glared down on me and the soft beeping of the monitors. I shifted in the hospital bed and felt the hand clutching mine stir and I turned in that direction. Beside me sitting in the chair was a tossle of…

Morpheus laughed. “Even your friends abandon you.” I smiled at the demon with red eyes. His pale skin made paler from the light his eyes made. “They aren’t my friends.” “Even you admit you are worthless. Come to me, Nox. Be mine. I’ll give you everything you want.” The power of persuasion was thrown at…

The demon was getting angrier. He was stalking back to me when I felt the presence. Fuck! It wasn’t nearby, but I felt Dev. I could smell his familiar scent on the wind. There was tickle against my skin. Like a ghost passed over me. A hand grasping me. I closed my hand around it,…

I struggled to breathe. The air was thick and I felt like I was drowning. I could see nothing, I couldn’t feel anything. There were no currents in the air. It was a void. Nothing. No life save me. No air, no light, no ground. I couldn’t even feel the elements around me. I felt…

I was about to let my power flair around me when I heard a small voice clear behind me. I turned to see the cutest brunette. When I say cutest I don’t mean she was the cutest thing I ever saw. Because I’m sure I’d seen cuter before. But Dee stood in the door way…

I don’t know how long I laid there but a woman cleared her throat and tapped on the door frame. “Nox?” Madison’s voice echoed in the small empty room. I opened my eyes and squinted at her before I closed them again. “Hmmm?” I asked. I didn’t want to move I was tired and I…
